From 1913 to 1922 he was Assistant Secretary of Cambridge Univer- sity Press, and its Education Secretary until 1929. He became a Fellow of Clare (1919–25). While at CUP he worked as editor, proofreader and indexer. Carey returned to teaching as Headmaster of Eastbourne College in 1929, then served with distinction in World War II.
